For example, reduced expression of the high mobility group A1 protein (HMGA1) associated with type 2 diabetes may be caused by upregulated transcription of the HMGA1p pseudogene, which competes with the 3′UTR of HMGA1 gene for the protein factor αCP1 critical for the stability of its mRNA [14]. Here, HMGA1 is linked to type 2 diabetes mellitus.
